Committee Reports

Ambassador to other LUGs - Last week at SVLUG was a presentation on
"Bitkeeper," a sourcecode maintenance system that the Linux kernel will
start using soon. SacLUG will be having a distribution demonstration at
their meeting tomorrow.

PPP How To - It will be presented to UCD IT during the 2nd week
of September.

Resnet How To - It will be sent to Beau at UCD IT by the next

Tax Exempt Club Status - The bylaws have been written. We still
need to pay $150 for tax exempt status. A unanimous vote was made in favor
of okaying the expense, once the bylaws are themselves okayed. Member
Bob Scofield will be contacted for help, as he used to be part of the
BAR Association.

Logo Committee - Bill's water tower drawing won with 8 votes. Pete's
penguin was runner-up with seven, and the penguin silhouette and the
bicycle non-drawing were close behind.

Laser Tag - We may set-up an inter- or intra-LUG laser tag game. It
may be LUG vs. LUG, emacs-users vs. vi-users, RedHat users vs. others or
some other combination.
